oh the dreaded tantrums hey!! I think often they do start earlier than we expect. One day we have little babies and the next we have tantrum throwing monsters!!

My DD started hers early, to be honest I can't really say exactly when as from day 1 she has always been excellent and letting me know she is not happy about something and it has gradually just progressed from that! But we have been having major tantrums for many many months. I think it was around my 9 month check up that I aksed my CHN what I could do during the tantrums and she said just to try and distract her and try not to let it stress me out too much because it will pass. At that age there is so much going on for them in terms of their development - their poor little brains must be working overtime to process all of the information and they are also learning to assert their independence and their feelings so its no wonder they have tantrums!

I hope things settle down for you soon hun
